The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) is the Republican Hill committee which works to elect Republicans to the United States House of Representatives. The NRCC was formed in 1866, when the Republican caucuses of the House and Senate formed a "Congressional Committee". It supports the election of Republicans to the House through direct financial contributions to candidates and Republican Party organizations; technical and research assistance to Republican candidates and Party organizations; voter registration, education and turnout programs; and other Party-building activities. It is a registered 527 group. The NRCC is always chaired by a Republican member of the House, who may serve up to two consecutive terms. The current chair is Rep. Greg Walden of Oregon. Recent former chairmen include Rep. Bill Paxon (1994–98), Rep. Tom Davis (1998–2002), Rep. Tom Reynolds (2002–2006), who was seen as Paxon's protégé and who represented his former district in Erie County, New York, Rep. Tom Cole (2006–2008), and Rep. Pete Sessions (2008-2012). It is governed by an Executive Committee of 11 members, which includes the party's Leader in the House ''ex officio'', and other members elected by the Republican Conference following a House election. ==NRCC Leadership== The NRCC is governed by its chairman, U.S. Rep. Greg Walden (OR-2), and an executive committee composed of Republican members of the U.S. House of Representatives. The Chairman is elected by the House Republican Conference after each Congressional election. Republican Leader John Boehner and the seven other elected leaders of the Republican Conference of the House of Representatives serve as ''ex officio'' members of the NRCC's executive committee. The day-to-day operations of the NRCC are overseen by Executive Director Liesl Hickey, who manages a staff involved in campaign strategy development, planning and management, research, digital, communications, fundraising, administration, and legal compliance. In addition to Chairman Walden, several other members of the House of Representatives aid the efforts of the Committee by overseeing various areas important to the NRCC.
